We’ve had a great week in P6B.

We’ve been learning lots about data handling, including trends and conducting surveys. We completed a nature survey outside and then some people made graphs to show the data.

We’ve continued our clans topic. We looked at the origins of some famous clan names and then looked up our own.

We’ve also been discussing kindness and our emotions, we created emotion t-shirts and wrote care instructions for ourselves and each other.

We practised using pathetic fallacy in our writing this week too. We used the weather to set the tone of our stories.

We hope you have a great weekend and we are looking forward to next week already!

It’s the end of another great week in P6b.

We started prefecting last Friday, covering for the P7s so they can have a day off. It’s hard work but we are really enjoying taking on some more responsibility.

We were using similes in our writing this week. We used them to improve our descriptions.

We’ve been developing throwing and catching skills in P.E. We enjoyed playing a range of games discussing what skills were being practised and thinking about tactics.

We have begun learning about data analysis, starting with bar graphs. We completed surveys and had a go at drawing our own graphs.

We are working on art with Mrs Hutchison. This week we mixed colours with Mrs Hutchison in art making primary, secondary and tertiary colours. It was quite messy, but great fun.

We hope you’ve enjoyed reading about a few of the things we’ve been learning this week.

It’s been another busy week in 6B!

We’ve been really enjoying listening to our novel, ‘How I Saved The World In a Week’ by Polly Ho-Yen. We’ve been making predictions and asking questions about the book. We’ve also used it to revise some grammar basics, finding examples of types of words.

We’ve been writing this week too. We worked to complete some story starters. After completing our writing we worked in pairs to peer-assess it using different colours to pick out some great examples.

In Numeracy we have been problem solving. We wrote word problems to ‘stump the teacher’ and tried to think outside the box to solve matchstick puzzles.

We have also begun our topic looking at Scottish history, after a vote we picked to learn about Scottish clans.

We hope you have a great weekend!

We’ve had a great start to the year in P6.

At the start of the week we visited the P1 classroom to meet our buddies and to deliver letters we had written to them.

We have been helping our buddies by taking them down after lunch and playing with them to help them settle in to Crookfur. We’ve all loved getting to know our buddies and taking on extra responsibility.

We’ve been busy with lots of other things in class like self-portraits and writing poems all about us. We’ve also enjoyed being back doing P.E.

We’ve been learning all about children’s rights, looking at different rights around the world and thinking about which rights are most relevant to school.

Overall, a great first week in P6b. We hope you enjoy reading our blog. Have a great weekend!
